Ergonomics optimizes human performance

Good ergonomics is good for organizational performance. More than just minimizing musculoskeletal injury and pain, ergonomics provides opportunities for optimizing human performance. Beyond reducing medical costs and workers’ comp rates, ergonomic improvements deliver high and measurable returns on investment across the business landscape: maximizing productivity, improving processes and quality through reduced errors, reducing turnover and absenteeism, and raising corporate reputation that drives workforce recruitment.

Signs of opportunity

Are you seeing workflow bottlenecks, or high rates of error and rework on your production lines?
Do employees complain of discomfort or fatigue, or consistently avoid certain jobs or tasks?
Do injury rates remain constant or increase despite ergonomics program investments?
Are your injury rates low, but absenteeism and turnover high?
Are you buying new tools and equipment and experiencing difficulty achieving compliance with use?

An experienced ergonomist could provide insights to these challenges and help your business run better. We can help you evaluate your program holistically, looking at rates of errors, absenteeism, low employee engagement, and safety culture, to identify root causes and ensure your ergonomics and human factors program is helping unlock the full potential of your workforce.

Ergonomics in the 21st Century

Twenty-first century changes in the workplace and workforce present employers with a host of new challenges:

Today’s employees expect employers to provide ergonomics assistance as an employee benefit as part of a high performing health and safety program.
Continued growth in mobile and remote workforces creates more complex ergonomic challenges and risks requiring new and unique solutions.
Adoption of automation increases human-machine interactions; good interface design is critical for maximizing the safety, speed and accuracy.
“Prevention through design” is becoming more commonplace; using an ergonomist as part of the design process ensures safety and reliability.
